  • I think the only truly raw ones are bariani and maybe living tree. i used to buy the napa valley, thinking "wow, it even says that its pressed at below 98. whatever degrees", but then someone on another raw board indicated that there seems to be som…
  • ok, i just listened to a tele-interview from the raw doctor who operates ecopolitan in minneapolis. he happened to mention that when he travels he cant usually stay all raw, and he takes this thing called inucell (sp?) that i guess helps your body t…
  • I agree about the cashews and think dehydrated food should be used only occasionally, but as for the DATES, Dates ROCK. they arent all processed like agave, and contain a pretty decent nutrient profile because they are a whole food. they have fiber …
  • artisana brand coconut BUTTER is awesome. its the whole coconut, not just the oil. ive found all other coconut oils unpalatable, but this butter i have to keep myself from eating out of the jar :)
  • dont know if this is much help, but i remember a while ago coming across a website where a raw-fooder said chestnuts were fine raw and chestnut flour was like a raw-fooders “bread”; so there might be some hope. I think it MIGHT have been rawfromthef…
  • Yep, i feel ya too. i make that mistake over and over and over…. swear i wont do it again, and then…. cant force myself to eat the awful salad when theres so much yummy sounding restaurant food. suffer for it every time, but never learn. bread is my…

  • hmmm. yeah, chocolate, fudge, etc…except i cant get raw cacao, carob, coconut butter, etc here (ireland) until i make another trip home (US)... james what do you DO with youre 5 lb bag? Zoe—the ones with the hulls still on them, which is what I have…
  • hey UK’ers, I know alot of others on this site might beg to differ with me about my opinion on the kelp noodles, but to be honest, I dont think youre missing out on as much as you think you are. I was pretty disappointed with them when I had them in…

  • Branwyn—not sure if you got everything sorted, but didnt look like you got all your questions answered. heres a few tips 1. you want HULLED Barley, not pearled. the pearled is too polished and will not sprout. the hulled should sprout little tails f…
